As part of its recent rulemaking process, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) finalized a new exception to the Physician Self-Referral Law (the Stark Law) to protect arrangements where limited remuneration is provided to a physician in exchange for items or services provided by the physician (the Limited Remuneration Exception).
